The New Telephone Game – AI version

At the conference I attended in January, they were using some speech to text application to do closed captioning in the ballroom. What appeared on the screen particularly while the group was singing reminded me of the outcomes of the telephone game. The first person whispers something to the person next to them and it goes around the circle. And generally the final message is a garbled mess.

Here are a few –
I have so many reasons to rejoice —> All your jaws
Come bring your burdens to God —> calm burdensom also cover your butter
Amen —-> Oh Man
Your Kingdom Come —> All War Kingdoms calm

Don’t think this version of AI is taking over the world soon, but it did make for several laughs. Maybe we need to bring back the game telephone just to lighten things up a bit.
